Circadia’s Jessner’s Peel is a combination of 14% Resorcinol, 14% Lactic and 14% Salicylic Acid. Since resorcinol is a peeling agent, the client will experience noticeable peeling or flaking approximately 3 to 4 days after the peel.
Skin Type Indications : Pigmentation, acne, sun damage, lentigenes, hyperpigmentation, Fitzpatrick I-III. Can be repeated every 2-3 months.
Brighten pigmentation due to acne, melasma, or photo damaged skin.
Increase cell turnover
Self neutralising
14% Lactic Acid: Lactic acid causes an increase in dermal Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs-natural moisturisers), an increase in ceramides (epidermal barrier lipids) and improved water barrier properties. Lactic Acid functions as a tyrosinase inhibitor and removes surface proteins.
14% Salicylic Acid: Salicylic acid is lipophilic which enables it to penetrate sebaceous material in the hair follicle and exfoliate the pores. Salicylic acid has a much stronger comedolytic effect than AHAs on the skin.
14% Resorcinol: Resorcinol will increase the amount of peeling experienced after a peel.
